HB 474 Pennsylvania House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

An Act amending the act of June 3, 1937 (P.L.1333, No.320), known as the Pennsylvania Election Code, in county boards of elections, further providing for powers and duties of county boards.

HB 474 requires Pennsylvania county boards of elections to maintain a publicly accessible website with a domain ending in ".gov" for election-related information. This bill directly affects all 67 county election boards by adding a specific administrative requirement to their existing duties under the Pennsylvania Election Code. The key provision mandates that these websites must use a ".gov" domain to ensure public access to election information. The bill takes effect one year after enactment, with no other substantive policy changes to election procedures.
